Feingold in Texas

Any readers out there from Texas? Or within driving distance of Austin?

If you're there, you'd better make sure you see Senator Russ Feingold as he visits your fine state. And I sincerely mean that, too, even if you sent us a certain president.

Besides, no state with its own Feingold for President blog can be a bad state.

From the Progressive Patriots Fund:

Milwaukee, WI – U.S. Senator Russ Feingold announced today that he will travel to Austin, Texas next Tuesday, April 18th, for a series of events with Texas Congressional Candidate John Courage. Courage is running to represent the 21st Congressional District – a district that includes downtown Austin, the University of Texas, and stretches to the northern part of the city of San Antonio. Courage was the first winner of Feingold’s Progressive Patriots Fund’s “Pick a Progressive Patriot” event held last year.

Feingold and Courage will hold a Listening Session on the campus of the University of Texas at 12:30 PM CT, in the Quadrangle of the University’s Student Union. This event is open to the public. Feingold and Courage will be available to the media following the event.

and

At 7:30 PM CT that evening, Tuesday, April 18th, Feingold will join Courage at Jovita’s, 1619 First St. in Austin, for a large event with Courage supporters.

If you're in Texas, why not tell Senator Feingold in person how great it would be if he were to, I don't know, move to the White House some day.
